HELLO @F800 ,
Welcome to the community,
You would need to click on compatibility on the website or app to enable it.

@F800 : Is your 5 GHz EE Wifi coming from a mobile router or a fixed Home BB Smart Hub router?
If the latter, Sometimes older or weaker devices may not be compatible with the default WiFi settings of EE Smart Hubs with their WPA3 Security. Try setting up Compatible WiFi on the router under Advanced > Wireless Settings > Config > Compatible WiFi (it defaults to 2.4 GHz only & WPA2) & connect your problematic 2.4 GHz or WPA2 devices to that. It presents itself as a separate network SSID of the form "MainSSID-Comp".

@F800 Your EE Broadband Wireless WiFi signal is combined 2.4/5Ghz out the box so if the device does not like the combined to connect to either switch the 5Ghz off to get connected or use and setup the Compatible network feature from the Help above.
